DYSPEPSIA.

Eedentary habits, mental worry, nervous excitement, excess or imprudence in eat ing or drinking, and various other causes, induce Constipation followed by general derangement of the liver, kidneys, and stomach, in which the disorder of each organ increases the inirmity of the others.
 The immediate results are Loss of Appe- tite, Nausea, Foul Breath, Heartburn, Flat ulence, Dizziness, Sick Headaches, failure of physical and mental yigor. distressing sense of weight and fullness in the stomach, and increased Costiveness, all of which are known under one head as Dyspepsia.
 Inevery instance where this disease does not originate from scrofulous taint in the blood, AYERS PILLS may be confidently relied upon to effect a cure. Those cases not amenablc to the curative influence of AYERS PILLS alone will certainly yield if the PILLS are aided by the powerful blood purifying properties of AYERS SARsAPk- RILLA.
 Dyspeptics should know that the longer treatment of their malady is postponed, the more difficult of cure it becomes.

The Los Angeles Times says: An in- side view of the operations of the profess sional San Francisco labor agitators IS given by the Alta California, which says that the spring crop of boycotts, strikes and controversies between employers and employees appears to have been un- boxed by agitators and self-constituted leaders of various unions. These pro- fesional laoorers, says the Alta, have re- commenced their efforts to "ameliorate the condition of the workingmen" by urg. ing them to leave their work in bodies. The agitation, however, promises net to be as brisk this year as it was last, be- cause a majority of the genuine workers have concluded to remain at work and provide for themselves and their families rather than accept without secud dty, the assertions of the would.be-leaders, that "the strike will be short and easily won" Appearances indicate that wage-workers are not disposed to accept the orders of the non-working, self-appointed officers with the same degree of respect accorded before the strike of the seamen under the management of Brunette G. Haskell, the Socialistic agitator, ended in such disastrous defeat last summer. That dev. fish and cowardly device, the "secret" boycott" is described by the same jour- nal:
 Since public boycotting proved unsuceess- fnl, the "agitators" have resorted to the "secret boycott" which consists in plac- ing the name of business man or mer- chant upon the black-lists of the various organizations, and the members of which are asked to refrain from patronizing him until his name has been removed. Those whose names are placed upon the dark. ened lists are not notified of the fact un- less it be one of the Headers" who is will ing, under certain conditions, to become his "friend." In case the merchant de. pends largely upon the laboring classes for his trade, he soon notes the decrease in his days receipts and sets about to ascertain the cause. Meeting one of his former customers, he inquiries the reason for his lack of patronage. He is answ- cred that he "has offended" and, if will ing to make amends, to so state in a communication to the union, which will probably order the "secret boycot" lifted.
 This is nothing short of blackmail. It is COG rcion of the meanest sort. It should and could be made an offense against the law. These secret boycotts, it is as. serted, have been ordered for the mos, trivial reasons. The names of several merchants and restaur ateurs have been added to the blacklist simply because they preferred riding upon the cars of the boycotted cable railroad company rather than walking to and from their homes. These persistent attempts to establish the boycott on American soil provoke the questions; Is this free country, where the citizen has the righ, to control his own person. property and labor? or is it despotism. where one portion of the community bands itself ts. gether for the purpose of coercing, op. pressing and overriding another? :.

In Town and Hamlet.

The seeds of intermittent and bilious remittent fever germinate and bear evil fruit. No community has altogether escaped it. In populous wards of large cities bad sewage causes it, and in their suburbs stagnant pools in sunken lots breed it. There is at once remedy and means of prevention. Its name is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which is, without peradventure, the most potent antidote in existence to the malarial virus. Fortified with this incompatible, saving specific, miasmatic influences may be encountered with absolute impunity. Disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels, begotten by miasma-talnted water or any other cause, succumb to the bene6cent corrective named, and rheu- matic, kidney and bladder troubles are surely removable by its use when it is given persistent trial.
